An unusual ST-segment elevation: Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy shows the ace up its sleeve

Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is part of the broad clinical and morphologic spectrum of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We report a patient with electrocardiographic abnormalities in whom acute coronary syndrome was excluded and apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was demonstrated by careful differ...

description Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is part of the broad clinical and morphologic spectrum of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We report a patient with electrocardiographic abnormalities in whom acute coronary syndrome was excluded and apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was demonstrated by careful differential diagnosis. Resumo: A miocardiopatia hipertrófica apical faz parte do amplo espectro clínico e morfológico da miocardiopatia hipertrófica. Nós reportamos um doente com alterações electrocardiográficas no qual foi excluída uma síndrome coronária aguda e foi demonstrada uma miocardiopatia hipertrófica apical usando um processo correto de diagnóstico diferencial.
